NFL Free Agent Quarterbacks - RotoBaller Reactions
Here at RotoBaller, we've given you our take on all the major moves of NFL free agency (and some minor ones too). Our expert staff may not all agree on where players should be ranked or what their value will be for 2018, but if we did, that would just be boring. If there's one... Read More
Under the Radar RB Signings - Fantasy Risers or Fallers?
A flurry of activity in the past week has sent fantasy football owners and sports Twitter into a frenzy. Some huge names changed teams and the domino effect will affect dozens of players league-wide. Then again, not every signing has to create a seismic shift in the fantasy universe. There were a number of under the... Read More
What's Going On With the Miami Dolphins Wide Receiver Position?
Before free agency, I wrote up a piece on Leonte Carroo and Jakeem Grant and which one would take advantage of the hole left by the trading of Jarvis Landry. That piece is, uhh, going to have to go through some major changes. Free agency and the Dolphins signing two guys to replace Jarvis Landry... Read More
Kirk Cousins to the Vikings - Fantasy Spin
Kirk Cousins officially became the starting quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings when he signed a historic, ground-breaking, three-year, $84 million contract that is fully guaranteed. It was the first fully guaranteed contract in the history of the NFL. The Vikings got their man and Cousins got paid. But how will the signing affect his fantasy... Read More
Carlos Hyde to the Browns - Fantasy Spin
The Cleveland Browns have been the most active franchise thus far in the free agency period, and that continued on Wednesday when they signed former San Francisco 49ers running back Carlos Hyde to a three-year, 15 million-dollar contract. Hyde, a second-round draft pick in 2014, will fill the void left by the departure of starting... Read More
Case Keenum to the Broncos - Fantasy Spin
Despite leading the Minnesota Vikings to the NFC Championship game, Case Keenum was unceremoniously replaced with the huge free agent signing of Kirk Cousins. Keenum immediately found a new home with the Denver Broncos on a two-year deal worth $36 million. Obviously this is a massive upgrade for all Denver fantasy options, so we can... Read More
Under the Radar WR Signings: Fantasy Risers or Fallers?
A flurry of activity in the past week has sent fantasy football owners and sports Twitter into a frenzy. Some huge names changed teams and the domino effect will affect dozens of players league-wide. Then again, not every signing has to create a seismic shift in the fantasy universe. There were a number of under the... Read More
Jimmy Graham to the Packers - Fantasy Spin
I have a lot of feelings about former Seattle Seahawks tight end Jimmy Graham moving to the Green Bay Packers and the cumulative effect of all these feelings is essentially just me sitting in a chair at a coffee shop with my hands above my shoulders because Graham's fit with the Packers is so tough to judge....

Sam Bradford to the Cardinals - Fantasy Spin
As of the morning of March 13, 2018, the Arizona Cardinals had zero quarterbacks under contract. By the end of the day, they had two. The Cardinals signed both Sam Bradford and Mike Glennon. I still think the Cardinals should draft a QB project in the second or third round, but Bradford is the clear... Read More
Dion Lewis to the Titans - Fantasy Spin
It is fair to say that the single most obvious offseason move was the Titans release of DeMarco Murray. As early as last summer, it was abundantly clear that the Titans were done with Murray after the 2017 season. Once Murray was released, nothing really changed for Derrick Henry because Henry's 2018 value was always... Read More
Fantasy Spin - Jay Cutler Signs with Miami
Former Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler signed a one-year, $10 million deal with the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, forsaking a cushy job in the Fox analyst booth to reunite with former OC Adam Gase. He should step in right away as the starter, after acclimating himself to the offense and personnel in training camp. Meanwhile,... Read More
The Grass IS Greener - NFL Free Agent Moves That Will Increase Value
There's a Sheryl Crow song from the '90s in which Crow sings that "a change would do you good." It's a sentiment that works well when applied to someone's personal life, but it's a complicated notion when it comes to sports. Players who move between teams often find themselves struggling to fit in with their... Read More
The Grass Isn't Always Greener - NFL Free Agents Who Will Decrease in Value
There was major shake-up with NFL Free Agency this offseason, particularly at the running back position. When you think about team’s infuriating commitment to RBBC, all of the running backs that have been on the move in 2017 make sense. From a fantasy perspective though, it just makes it that much harder for owners to... Read More
Five Tight Ends With New Homes - Fantasy Implications for 2017
There has been movement at the tight end position this offseason that could have serious fantasy implications for the 2017 season, as a few tight ends saw their stock increase based on their respective landing spots. Expectations should always be tempered for tight ends, but the offseason movement has created some additional value picks at... Read More

Yesterday, we reviewed the outlook for Eddie Lacy and the Seahawks now that he has officially found a new home in the Great Northwest. In this article, I will profile a few lesser-hyped running backs to determine how they might impact the fantasy landscape in 2017. Although they may not have the name recognition of some other...

Fantasy Spin - Brandin Cooks Traded To New England
Talk about a blockbuster. The New Orleans Saints traded Brandin Cooks to the New England Patriots for three draft picks Friday night. It's a blockbuster because of everything involved. Cooks is a big name wide receiver, the Patriots are the defending champs (again), and the story surrounding Cooks being shopped had been going on for... Read More

Fantasy Implications - Brandon Marshall to the Giants
NFL free agency is officially underway and some of the big names are already starting to swap uniforms. One longtime star receiver won't be moving cities, yet he is switching conferences and upgrading to a contender. The New York Giants signed free agent wide receiver Brandon Marshall to a two-year contract Wednesday. Marshall, who has been... Read More
